Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of silver ions (Ag) + In the field of Ag detection, specifically involving a method for Ag detection + Quinoline fluorescent probes for detection, their preparation methods, and applications. Background Technology
[0002] Silver ions (Ag) + Ag possesses unique biological properties, including antibacterial, antiviral, antioxidant activity, immune-enhancing, and metabolism-promoting effects. + It can accelerate wound healing by stimulating cell proliferation around the wound and has shown therapeutic effects on eye infections, skin ulcers, and burn-related infections. Silver nanoparticles further serve as a multifunctional drug delivery platform. In addition to biomedical applications, Ag... + It also possesses excellent ductility, electrical conductivity, and thermal conductivity, making it suitable for various industrial applications in fields such as chemical engineering, electronics, and photography. However, prolonged exposure to Ag... + It can trigger harmful physiological reactions, including immunosuppression, neurological dysfunction, endocrine disorders, gastric mucosal damage, liver degeneration, and systemic inflammation. Ag + Accumulation of silver ions in the environment poses a significant risk to ecosystems, impacting plant growth and threatening aquatic life. Therefore, sensitive detection of silver ions in biological and environmental samples is crucial for both clinical diagnosis and environmental monitoring.
[0003] Traditional Ag + Detection methods mainly include colorimetry, gas chromatography, electrochemical methods, atomic absorption spectrometry, gel electrophoresis, and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. However, these techniques generally suffer from problems such as expensive equipment, complex operation, or slow response speed. Fluorescent probe technology has attracted much attention in environmental science, biomedicine, and virology research due to its excellent specificity, low toxicity, and real-time dynamic monitoring capabilities. However, existing small-molecule fluorescent probes often suffer from poor photostability, low sensitivity, slow response speed, and poor anti-interference properties. Fluorescence imaging can non-invasively observe subtle concentration changes of ions and small-molecule biological substances in biological systems, providing important diagnostic information for disease progression. However, there are relatively few existing red fluorescent probes that can suppress background interference, have low biotoxicity, and cause minimal optical damage to biological tissues. Ye Fei et al. reported a naphthalimide-based fluorescent probe in the March 2019 issue (Volume 200) of *Talanta*, which can completely quench Ag by green fluorescence. + It allows for selective recognition, but the probe only responds to Ag under neutral and alkaline conditions. + And the probe recognizes Ag + Its detection limit is relatively high (1.20 µM), which to some extent limits its ability to detect trace amounts of Ag.+ Detection applications.
[0004] In analytical chemistry, Schiff base probes are indispensable tools due to their excellent coordination ability, tunable photophysical properties, and ease of structural modification. Notably, heteroatoms in these molecules can serve as strong recognition sites for metal ions, leading to stable chelate formation. In recent years, researchers have continuously explored novel Schiff base probes, but challenges remain, including low sensitivity and slow response speed. Liu Kai et al. reported a coumarin Schiff base probe in the June 2024 issue (No. 278) of *Talanta*, demonstrating its ability to recognize Ag through red fluorescence quenching. + However, this probe can recognize Hg through the same fluorescence response. 2+ (Specificity is not ideal), and the probe identifies Ag. + The probe has relatively low sensitivity (detection limit of 0.25 µM) and poor water solubility (the volume ratio of solvent acetonitrile to water is 4:1). In addition, the probe cannot be used for bioimaging due to toxicity or biocompatibility factors, which greatly limits its application in the biological field for trace Ag. + Detection applications.
[0005] According to current literature reports, for Ag + The identification methods mainly have the following drawbacks: 1. Used for Ag + The fluorescent probe being detected emits a relatively short wavelength; 2. Existing methods for Ag + The sensitivity and response speed of the detected fluorescent probes are not ideal; 3. Existing methods for Ag + The detected fluorescence can be made into test strips and combined with smartphone recognition technology for Ag. + Probes for real-time detection are relatively scarce.
